Nice stay

Nice stay at this hotel, the employees are professionnals that are here for you in case you need them. The room are clean and the hotel too. Thank you for those good moments.
Vincent, 4-night trip

8/10 Very good

Rooms are very small but the facilities makeup for that. You get breakfast included in the price which is a very good deal for the price. There is a Lawson right near the entrance for quick shopping. Kyoto station is a good 20 minutes walk.
Balaji, 3-night trip

The room is very small, think of a cruise ship style room. It did include breakfast and dinner. This place met my budget.

Great value. Cold rooms because the heater turns off when you leave. Breakfast ends a little early for my liking. Good service except we had three people in our room and two pillows and when i asked for another pillow they said, "no".
4-night trip

4/10 Fair

The pillow has stains, the sheets have stains, the bathroom is dirty, the bathroom walls are dirty, socks on the floor from the person who stayed before, but as you say, you get what you pay for.
Margarita, 2-night trip

6/10 Good

5 or so min walk to Kujo metro station. Lawson store right next to hotel. Breakfast and dinner included in stay, which we weren’t aware of. Check in was slow and English was limited. Breakfast was ok for the convenience, dinner we only had once during our stay as obviously much better food in Kyoto! Room and bathroom very small and dated decor. No wardrobe or space to put your luggage so was difficult with our 5 night stay. Plenty of washing machines and tumble dryers. Would recommend only for a 1/2 night stay and you are price sensitive.

また利用したい。

部屋はちょっと狭めだが、とても良かった。エレベーターを降りると、少し外を歩くイメージなので、夏の季節は暑いが、大浴場の女性セキュリティや、食事を含むサービスはとても良かった。 後はなぜか部屋にコバエがいた事、洗面所が少し下水臭かったですが、是非また利用したいです。
